Tissue Microarray Construction
The Pathology Clinical Service Center (PCSC) utilizes the Galileo CK4600 Tissue Microarrayer to construct both high- and low-density tissue arrays using core sizes of 0.6, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, 3.0, and 5.0 mm. These arrays can be customized to meet your specific needs and optimized for spatial-omics analysis.
For studies involving archival patient tissue, we recommend collaborating with a pathologist (or pathology trainee) to ensure efficient triaging of tissue blocks and to expedite array construction.
The estimated turnaround time for TMA projects (once blocks are received and regions of interest are selected) is 8-10 weeks. Before submitting your TMA request, if you are a new client, please make sure you have reviewed the instructions for initiating New User Set-Up with the PCSC.
